A '''frigate''' is a type of [[light capital warship]] in both the [[United Nations Space Command]] and [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] [[fleet]]s. Like their seaborne counterparts, frigates are defined as medium-tonnage vessels, larger than [[corvette]]s, more versatile than [[destroyer]]s and smaller than [[cruiser]]s.
